Generalization of Binary Search: Searching in Trees and Forest-Like Partial Orders
We extend the binary search technique to searching in trees. We consider two models of queries: questions about vertices and questions about edges. We present a general approach t...

Thinking about binary trees in an object-oriented world
The Binary Search Tree serves as an important example when teaching data structures. We explore new approaches to understanding the implementation of a Binary Search Tree, using c...

Phase Changes in Subtree Varieties in Random Recursive and Binary Search Trees
We study the variety of subtrees lying on the fringe of recursive trees and binary search trees by analyzing the distributional behavior of Xn,k, which counts the number of subtree...

Large Deviations for the Weighted Height of an Extended Class of Trees
We use large deviations to prove a general theorem on the asymptotic edge-weighted height Hn of a large class of random trees for which Hn c log n for some positive constant c. A...

Searching large indexes on tiny devices: optimizing binary search with character pinning
The small physical size of mobile devices imposes dramatic restrictions on the user interface (UI). With the ever increasing capacity of these devices as well as access to large o...
